    Yeah, note to self, do not trust the Vista diagnosis tool.

    So I was browsing from a shared network drive and suddenly I cannot go up a folder. Then Vista was nice enough to diagnosis the issue for me, and gave the option to remove the outdated LSP.

    Call me gullible whatever, but it seemed harmless enough.

    Now I can't connect to the network drive (on another XP computer) but everything else seems to work just fine, Internet, RDC, windows update, etc.

    I already tried uninstalling the network card driver which did not help, and the lspfix tool which found no problems. Or should I roll back to a previous backup which was a while ago?
